Loved this tour! So many of the tours focus on the market, this was a nice opportunity to learn more about a different part of Charleston. Our guide was lovely and did a great job of keeping us in the shade whenever possible which was greatly appreciated!

Fascinating tour of Charleston

David from Bulldog tours was my mom and I’s tour guide. He did an excellent job at telling us the history and showing us the architecture of different buildings because it was something I mentioned once the tour started. He even took the liberty of seeing how much certain houses cost on certain streets which was fascinating and how to tell if certain features on the facade were real based off the year of the house. He also showed us maps built into buildings to give us an idea of what Charleston looked like back in the early days. Overall I was quite impressed with his knowledge of the area and of any questions we had that he answered. He made sure to bring us to the market for umbrellas at the end because we forgot our ponchos at the hotel. I’ll make sure to bring the rest of my family back to Charleston to go on another history tour with David.
